C&V Strava
 

I ride C&V as well as a modern carbon bike but I always use Strava. I like the data, seeing how I stack up against myself as well as against others. Anyone else running Strava?

I have seen I am ever so slightly faster on my modern bike if I am sprinting because of the 13-12-11 gears that I can access. Otherwise on a long sustained ride it is mostly the wind that dictates my speed.

I've created a club if you'd like to join. The C&V club is called Classic and Vintage Bicycle Club, of course not limited to any one website or subgroup. Invite anyone you think would appreciate it:

I would join.

Sounds like a great idea

Grand idea - I'd be happy to join. Info on setting up a Strava club - https://support.strava.com/hc/en-us/...-Strava#create

I've added the club. Feel free to join.

Great idea, @Narhay. Joined.

Thanks @Narhay - I've signed up.

I'm in!

12 people already. Very good start.

I joined, but I rarely use strava. I'm loyal to ridewithgps. I don't suppose there's a way to sync them, is there?

I joined.
my Garmin automatically updates Strava. is there a way to only show the once a week classic ride data? I ride the Ciocc every Tuesday evening, but the CF bike the rest of the times.

I'm in... my name is close to "virgin futon".

Shouldn't it be called "Narhay's Classic and Vintage Bicycle Club?"

:D

I'm in. I ride my modern bike more than my vintage one, but my last 2 rides were on my old Peugeot.

I'm onboard, and also on BF 50+. Guess I should start uploading again.

Not spending anywhere near as much riding these days as I should, but maybe this would provide motivation to get back on the bike.

Try this

I use it to sync from garmin to strava and rwgps

works seamlessly

I use Map My Ride as well as Strava, and have them both running simultaneously as I find Strava cuts out occasionally. When that happens I export the activity from MMR and import it into Strava. I don't use Ride With GPS, but is it possible to run it with another app?

Incidentally, very occasionally Strava and MMR both fail - I've found when that happens Google Timeline still records an activity.

And one other incidentally - running two apps often shows distance variation between the two, sometimes up to half a mile.

Yes, someone is evidently paying attention. :)

I have the App. Use it periodically. I am cautious about the start locations. I make them random and away a bit from actual start /end. I understand now that there is an auto randomizer.
I use it to document a ride for reference.
Problem with it is there is a subtle urge to "get that KOM", or top time for a "segment". I see too many Strava Slaves running signals, stop signs, very easy to fall into that.
Absolutely no social usage.

I'm not allowed to be on Strava. I've tried to sign up, and it tells me to check and verify my e-mail. So I pull up the e-mail, click the verify link, and when I'm back on the Strava page it sends me back into the same loop to verify my e-mail when I try to sign in. I've tried signing in from different computers - it sends me back into the same verify e-mail loop [that I can't escape].

Even Strava doesn't want my slow-ass rides :)

I have just as much fun trying to load ridewGPS files onto my Garmin. I drag 'em in to the folder, save into the folder, whatever, they're never there. Tech headaches are why I can't operate a smart phone, either. It's a good thing I'm getting old and won't have to live long with[out] this stuff.
